Cool, and filed away, thanks!.  However, I'm still coding for -all- Windows
from 95 upwards.  I'd want to be able to toggle it on any 'doze box.  What
was the old API access for it?  Any idea?

The better question is where you looked up those two.  If I had a reference
to the API, it might prove handy.
